NOTICE OF VIOLATION
Released: October 7, 2010
By the District Director, Los Angeles Office, Western Region, Enforcement Bureau:
1. This is a Notice of Violation (“Notice”) issued pursuant to Section 1.89 of the 
Commission’s Rules,1 to Alliance Communications Gruop [sic] (“Alliance”)2, licensee of station 
WQCA755, in Montrose, California.
2. On July 20, and July 23, 2010, in response to a complaint, an agent from the Enforcement 
Bureau’s Los Angeles Office monitored the frequency 451.525 MHz in the Los Angeles, California, area 
and observed the following violations:
a. 47 C.F.R. § 90.403(e): “Licensees shall take reasonable precautions to avoid 
causing harmful interference. This includes monitoring the transmitting 
frequency for communications in progress and such other measures as may 
be necessary to minimize the potential for causing interference.” At the time 
of the investigation, the WQCA755 repeater was transmitting dispatch traffic 
for All Yellow Taxi, Inc., on 451.525 MHz, a frequency shared with other 
licensees in the Los Angeles area.  The agent observed that these 
transmissions often interrupted the transmissions by other licensees who 
were also licensed to use the same frequency. The agent interviewed the All 
Yellow Taxi, Inc. operations manager, who was unaware of the method to 
temporarily disable his digital squelch, or his need to monitor the shared 
channel before transmitting, which created the potential for interference to 
other licensed users. 
  
1 47 C.F.R. § 1.89.
2 The name of this company is misspelled on the WQCA755 license.  According to the company’s FCC Registration 
Number filing, its correct name is Alliance Communications Group.

b. 47 C.F.R. § 90.425(a):  “Except as provided for in paragraphs (d) and (e) of 
this section, each station or system shall be identified by the transmission of 
the assigned call sign during each transmission or exchange of transmissions,
or once each 15 minutes (30 minutes in the Public Safety Pool) during 
periods of continuous operation.”  At the time of the investigation, the 
WQCA755 repeater signal was monitored for several hours and at no time 
was the call sign identification heard.  
3. Pursuant to Section 308(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended,3 and 
Section 1.89 of the Commission's Rules, Alliance must submit a written statement concerning this matter 
within twenty (20) days of release of this Notice.  The response must fully explain each violation, must 
contain a statement of the specific action(s) taken to correct each violation and preclude recurrence, and 
should include a time line for completion of pending corrective action(s).  The response must be complete 
in itself and signed by an officer of Alliance.  All replies and documentation sent in response to this 
Notice should be marked with the File No. and NOV No. specified above, and mailed to the following
